Reborn As Super Heiress

Jiang Weide, who was locked in some small dark room, was unaware that his disappearance had caused chaos outside.

The Disciplinary Committee, through their investigation of Zhang Lihua, also set their sights on Zhang Lihua’s son-in-law Jiang Weide. They followed the clues all the way, but what puzzled them was that when the investigators arrived at Zhang Lihua’s home, they were informed by Zhang Lihua’s wife, Zhang Xiaohui, that Jiang Weide had run away.

Meanwhile, the Disciplinary Committee received an anonymous package. Upon opening the package, the entire committee was in an uproar.

Inside the package was a stack of photocopies containing evidence of the crimes committed by Zhang Lihua and Jiang Weide.

The Disciplinary Committee was at a loss about how to convict Zhang Lihua, but with these documents, they immediately interrogated Zhang Lihua.

The data clearly outlined the times and places involved. With a little bit of pressure from the committee, Zhang Lihua believed they already had substantial evidence against him. He quickly succumbed to the interrogation and confessed truthfully.

The Disciplinary Committee, without much effort, took down Zhang Lihua and, using the evidence, exposed several officials who had accepted bribes.

However, a key person in this, Zhang Lihua’s son-in-law Jiang Weide, was missing from the very beginning of their investigation.

The Disciplinary Committee suspected their investigation had been leaked, prompting Jiang Weide to flee recklessly with the intent to escape with funds.

What puzzled them was that despite checking all forms of transportation records, they could not find any trace of Jiang Weide using any transportation. They even monitored his bank cards and various assets but found no clues.

Jiang Weide had not left the country, nor had he withdrawn money from any bank, as if he had suddenly vanished without a trace.

The Disciplinary Committee, unable to find any leads, could only categorize Jiang Weide as a fugitive on their online wanted list and secretly issued warrants through local police stations for his long-term capture.

Zhang Xiaohui’s family was in complete ruin because of this matter.

Jiang Weide did leave some money. Although he committed crimes, the property and company shares under Zhang Xiaohui’s name weren’t frozen. Moreover, due to the special circumstances between the Jiang and Zhang families, Zhang Xiaohui had been planning an escape for herself for the past year or two, depositing a considerable amount of money in various banks under Auntie Zhang and Liu Ma’s names.

Now that trouble had befallen the Zhang and Jiang families, Zhang Xiaohui, knowing her capabilities were limited, naturally thought of ways to secure her own future.

She applied to the court for a divorce from Jiang Weide and provided a signed divorce agreement.

This divorce agreement was actually signed by Zhang Xiaohui before marrying Jiang Weide. Due to their unique marriage arrangement and the Zhang family’s situation, Zhang Xiaohui and Jiang Weide had pre-agreed that if any irreparable issues arose in their marriage, either party could file for divorce with this agreement.

Because of this agreement, Zhang Xiaohui felt she wasn’t cornered and at least had some options.

Perhaps due to the special circumstances involving Jiang Weide, Zhang Xiaohui’s divorce application faced almost no resistance. The court quickly scheduled a hearing, and ruled that the divorce was consensual for both parties; it didn’t even take a month.

During this process, Zhang Xiaohui went to see her father.

Zhang Lihua did not involve his daughter in the private deals between him and Jiang Weide, and fortunately, Zhang Xiaohui was not implicated, so during the Disciplinary Committee’s investigation, Zhang Xiaohui escaped unscathed.

Zhang Lihua gave Zhang Xiaohui a name, instructing her to find this person.

Before the investigation, Zhang Lihua anticipated his precarious situation through the municipal planning’s temporary alteration of Plan B. He had already entrusted a reliable person to transfer some assets, meant for his daughter and wife’s security.

However, upon learning of this, Zhang Xiaohui did not follow Zhang Lihua’s intentions. After contacting this person and obtaining the money, she promptly donated it to charity.

Having divorced Jiang Weide, Zhang Xiaohui already acquired considerable wealth from him. Coupled with her pre-arranged exit strategies, selling off immovable assets, and the properties under Auntie Zhang and Liu Ma’s names, she had more than enough for a comfortable life.

Thus, she had no intention of taking that money, knowing well how it was acquired and doubting she could spend it with a clear conscience.

After divorcing Jiang Weide, Zhang Xiaohui began the paperwork for emigration without hesitation. When Mother Zhang awoke from the hospital, she had become senile due to a stroke. Zhang Xiaohui immediately decided to take her mother abroad for medical treatment.

However, Zhang Xiaohui’s emigration was delayed for several months due to Father Zhang’s situation. It wasn’t until he was completely convicted, subjected to double discipline, and sentenced to fifteen years in prison that Zhang Xiaohui and her mother’s emigration formalities were successfully completed.

Wasting no time, Zhang Xiaohui swiftly took her mother abroad, resolved never to return.

Of course, what Zhang Xiaohui couldn’t have anticipated was that someone secretly assisted in their emigration; otherwise, the idea of them leaving the country was out of the question.

This clandestine helper was none other than Huo Sining.

In fact, on the day Jiang Weide was thrown into the Space, Huo Sining learned from Yu Fei that the data on that notebook was real. Without a second thought, she sent the materials to the Disciplinary Committee’s office.

Having done this, Huo Sining and her companions didn’t linger and immediately flew back to the Imperial Capital the same day.

By this time, it was already the twenty-seventh of December in the lunar calendar, with just three days left until the New Year.

The Gu Family had thoroughly cleaned their house, replacing window decorations and couplets, bringing an air of festive newness everywhere.

Upon hearing the news that Huo Sining and Gu Xu had returned to the Imperial Capital, the elders of the Gu Family immediately called, insisting the couple come home for dinner.

With no other choice, Huo Sining and Gu Xu obediently returned to the Gu Family’s ancestral home.

They originally planned to inform the Gu Family about Niuniu in advance.

After all, the adoption of the little chubby girl could easily be uncovered by anyone who cared to investigate. If the Gu Family coincidentally caught wind of it later, it could cause trouble. Thus, it was better to prepare the family mentally in advance, at least preventing any unpleasant surprises.

However, before they could bring up the matter of the little chubby girl, a major problem arose during dinner.
